There's no such thing as pressure when it comes to Arroyo.

If we could get to these playoffs, we've got the starting pitching and relief pitching to win it all. Bronson as a #3 Starter in the playoffs, after the Ace Cueto and #2 Latos, gives this team a chance to go all the way.

Hopefully Arroyo is not the "number 3" starter. Would be a short series. Arroyo's stuff won't play in the summer as bats heat up.

Another bad call by an ump. Baseball needs to find dudes with better vision.

[Ohayou]

Had him beat by a full step.

[New York Red]

Drew robbed of a hit.

If I'm Bronson I'm taking advantage of that 6 inches outside strike.

I like this new Stubbs. Batting in front of Votto benefits a lot of people, but it's really seemed to calm him down, allow him to cut down on his strikeouts, and flash a bit more of that power.

Do they have the consistent offense and timely hitting? Managing? Dusty was at the helm of a team up 3-2 in the World Series and 6-1 in the 6th inning of game six....brought in a strange choice for relief....blew game 6...then lost game 7.

Also was up 3-1 with the Cubs and was leading (8-1?) when Bartman interfered in the (8th).....couldn't pull his team together and they blew the huge lead and lost next two to lose series.

His leadership and Dustyball was just painful against the Phillies....who lost 4-2 in the next round to a team that worked the count every batter.

I guess some have a short memory. Except for his mono plagued 2011, his stuff has been just fine. Not a bad job in his 2010 post season satrt either.

Bronson has allowed only 8 runs in his last five starts. If he continues to pitch like this, he's definitely worthy of a #3 spot in the rotation. Besides, in a 7-game series, with all the off days, he'd likely only pitch one time anyway, unless the series goes the distance. We have a lot of pitching options. More than most teams have.
